HEPATITIS B COMMUNITY
Hepatitis panel testing

Hepatitis panel testing

I did a complete hepatitis panel 9 weeks after a possible exposure.  The panel came out negative for Hepatitis A, B, and C.  My doctor said that if I was positive, the test would have picked it up after 9 weeks.  What are your thoughts on the accuracy of this test after 9 weeks?

Thanks!

Your doctor is right.

To be sure, be vaccinated and test till you have positive anti-HBs.

I have started my vaccination process.  They said I do one shot now, one in a month and one in 6 months.  Then I will get retested.  

Thanks for your advice!
